The Buckets by Greg Cravens for January 08, 2019

Even Eddie sees his big brother as a doofus.

“S-p-e-c-i-a-l b-u-s.”

grow up and they will stop…maybe.

So no need for Pig Latin yet. Well, with Eddi they might.

Well, now you have the answer to the question, “Why do I need this class?”, bright guy.

Ze adults, zey speak le language foreign, eh? Ja, ya betcha!

Until you understand what they’re spelling, you’re a little kid. Or a real doofus.

My dad’s parents were from Belgium and spoke English, French, and Flemish. They used English as the every day language, but taught the kids French so they could ‘talk around’ their friends. When they didn’t want the kids to ‘hear’, they spoke Flemish.

My friend and her husband write things in cursive if they don’t want their kids to be able to read it.

They did a lot of spelling at Hogwarts…
